Cake Toppers
When planning a wedding the
cake is one of the most important things, but so is the cake
toppers. Choosing the cake topper that best relates to you and your
fiancée is essential. This doesn’t necessarily mean relating to what you
do or what your hobbies are, but maybe your style. Simple and elegant,
or maybe extravagant and flashy? Whatever your reason is for choosing a
specific cake topper is, you’ll be sure to find something especially for
the both of you.

Some thoughts and ideas you may want to think about when choosing
your topper are:
What your cake is going to look like. If you are choosing a very busy
cake, there may not be room for a cake topper, or little room. This is
something you will want to check with your cake maker before running out
and getting the biggest cake topper you can find!!
Would you and your fiancée prefer to have something fancy or something
much more simple? Depending on what you like there are many ideas out
there. Some people are finding cake toppers that resemble their time
together - for instance having two little tree’s made to resemble their
time camping together, or if they have a love for skiing the having two
little skiers for the top of their cake. Others that are looking for
something more simple are finding letters to symbolize their initials.
So for John and Jane they find a J & J or J (heart) J, to put on their
cake.
Are you hoping to keep your cake topper as a keepsake or just plan on
throwing it out afterwards? It you want something that can be used to
remember you day, make sure you find something that is study and stable.
Some ideas would be a figurine of two people dancing or kissing. Or
having someone take your fiancee and your picture and etch it in glass
along with the date of your wedding. I’ve seen this done and although it
is not cheap, it is beautiful.
Then of course you have traditional bride and groom. Now a days they
have a more comedic view of the bride and groom. Bride dragging the
groom by the foot, bride feeding cake to the groom, even bride
straddling the groom for a big kiss. They got everything! But of course
they still have the more traditional bride and groom arm in arm,
dancing, kissing, groom carrying bride over threshold, etc.
So you can see you have many choices the top of your cake, but you want
to make sure that you have an idea of what your cake is going to look
like before purchasing the topper. And if you want your topper to last,
don’t buy something cheap that could easily break. Keep in mind that you
are wanting something that will last a lifetime! Oh and make sure you
share your cake topper wishes with your significant other as you want
them to be on the same page as you.
